Kingdoms of Kalamar: Player's Guide to the Sovereign Lands

This is it - the definitive rulebook for the D&D: Kingdoms of Kalamar campaign setting, and a must have for players and Dungeon Masters of any D&D (v3.5) campaign. Not only is the Player's Guide to the Sovereign Lands loaded with expanded and updated material, this 275-page searchable PDF supplement also includes a vast amount of new background details and game mechanics!

Chapter One details 28 player character races, including a variety of humans, dwarves, elves, gnomes, half-elves, half-hobgoblins, half-orcs, halflings and hobgoblins! Also included are details on languages, naming conventions and other vital statistics.

Chapter Two discusses the 7 variant classes, introducing the Basiran dancer, brigand, gladiator, infiltrator, shaman, spellsinger and watchman. This chapter also provides pages of new and helpful advice on making, playing and adapting each of these variant classes, as well as detailing daily life, organizations, sample encounters and more!

Chapter Four details a multitude of new Craft, Knowledge, Profession, and Speak Language skills, as well as new uses for existing skills and a variant language skill system!

Chapter Five includes over 100 feats, including not only general feats, but also familiar, item creation, metamagic, psionic, regional and special feats!

Chapter Six provides immense background for your character’s religion, with names, alignments, churches, favored weapons, symbols, and divine focuses! Also included are full details on religious canons, information on advancing within the ranks of the church, weapons of the deities, the divine right of kings, a wide variety of divine channeling powers, and more!

Chapter Seven presents equipment, including alchemical mixtures, clothing, herbal concoctions, poisons, slaves (a common sight in some areas of Tellene), tools and related gear, 20 weapons, 8 types of ammunition, 13 armors, and a discussion of the coinage of Tellene!

Chapter Nine discusses adventuring in the Sovereign Lands, with an overview of the six major regions, their kingdoms, independent cities and known adventure locations. Also included are guides to travelling the roads and waterways of Tellene, as well as hiring transportation and purchasing lodging. This section also delves into common diseases and how to handle player character nobility in each land.

Chapter Ten details 43 unique domains, over 125 spells, the scalable spell type, and discusses how the arcane spellcasters of the Sovereign Lands differ from those in other core D&D books.

Chapter Eleven presents dozens of new magic items, including 18 magic armors and weapons (along with 12 new special abilities), plus over a dozen rings, rods, and staves, with 36 wondrous items and 6 cursed items, plus 4 artifacts!

The Appendices cover the glossary, d10,000 place of origin tables for each race, and a player character record sheet designed especially for your Kingdoms of Kalamar character!

Although easily converted for use in any Dungeons & Dragons setting, this book is designed to be used with the Kingdoms of Kalamar campaign setting - a realistic, dynamic world where complex political alliances mix with marauding bands of humanoids, and medieval technology and culture come faces to face with magic and the fantastic. Whatever type of adventure you seek, you can find it here.

To use this campaign supplement in a Dungeons & Dragons game, you also need a copy of the Player's Handbook, the Dungeon Master's Guide, and the Monster Manual. You can also find further detail on the Kingdoms of Kalamar campaign setting in the Kingdoms of Kalamar campaign setting sourcebook, the Kingdoms of Kalamar Player's Primer and our many other fine sourcebooks and adventures.

Note: Unlike the original 272-page Kingdoms of Kalamar Player’s Guide (v3.0), the 275-page Player’s Guide to the Sovereign Lands (v3.5) PDF contains no material reprinted from other D&D sources! That's right, this release contains over 80 pages of information that never appeared in the 3.0 version, including all five hobgoblin subraces, tons of new information on the variant classes, the new watchman class and 43 unique domains, plus new skills, feats, weapons, armor, equipment, career paths, spells, and more!

I am not really sure how to rate and review this product. My thought process varies on whether this is the first time one has come by this material. For those who already own the physical copy the added material doesn't really make this worth w [...]

These products were created by scanning an original printed edition. Most older books are in scanned image format because original digital layout files never existed or were no longer available from the publisher.

For PDF download editions, each page has been run through Optical Character Recognition (OCR) software to attempt to decipher the printed text. The result of this OCR process is placed invisibly behind the picture of each scanned page, to allow for text searching. However, any text in a given book set on a graphical background or in handwritten fonts would most likely not be picked up by the OCR software, and is therefore not searchable. Also, a few larger books may be resampled to fit into the system, and may not have this searchable text background.

For printed books, we have performed high-resolution scans of an original hardcopy of the book. We essentially digitally re-master the book. Unfortunately, the resulting quality of these books is not as high. It's the problem of making a copy of a copy. The text is fine for reading, but illustration work starts to run dark, pixellating and/or losing shades of grey. Moiré patterns may develop in photos. We mark clearly which print titles come from scanned image books so that you can make an informed purchase decision about the quality of what you will receive.

Original electronic format

These ebooks were created from the original electronic layout files, and therefore are fully text searchable. Also, their file size tends to be smaller than scanned image books. Most newer books are in the original electronic format. Both download and print editions of such books should be high quality.
